"Inspection Photos: Too Many or Not Enough?" Webinar with Derik Pomaville, CPI
From an insurance perspective, how do photos help or hurt us? Join guest presenter Derik Pomaville, CPI and InterNACHI's Ben Gromicko for this free, online LIVE home inspection training class.
I recently decided to cut back on photos, especially on smaller items or generic items that may not need a photo. That being said I definitely think you should include photos for anything major.
I’ve always wondered about the amount of pictures I take. I know there are a lot of guys who take pictures that aren’t in the report. I always provide all the pictures I take. Should be an interesting topic.

Welcome back to our forum, Zachary Gillespie!.. Enjoy participating. 
I can understand that. I’ve heard of that as well. I personally don’t. I take about 250-300 pictures per inspection. I used to take more. many of these are pictures of the four sides of the home, rooms, appliances, etc. Somethings I put in, such as the air conditioner, water heater, etc. But I don’t see much point in sending them all of them by default. If a client asked me, I would make them a CD of them.
I do much (~200 photos, but use < 100) like Chris Hall, but wanted to see this webinar to hear what was presented.
Trouble is, when I try to register, the system gives me an error message and says to try again in a few seconds… for two days now.
Anyone else getting that?
I take photos in lieu of notes (terrible handwriting). I do not take pictures which will simply duplicate listing photos (rooms). I don’t put all the photos in the report because it’s unnecessary. For example I take photos of serial numbers. There is a place on my report to enter the serial number, which I do. The photo is then superfluous and just loads up the report. MD requires I save reports and notes for 5 years so everything goes in a folder saved on a backup drive. Iuse the 2 digit year month and day followed by the client’s initial for a report number. That way every report is stored in the order done.
